With theatres in Singapore re-opening, you can get back to enjoying movies on bigger screens with better sound quality!
Theatres in Singapore have remained closed for months and it’s understandable if you miss the experience – walking down the rows looking for your seat, settling in the dim lighting, and getting immersed in the widescreen and surround sound. We missed it too, which is why we’re excited that the theatres have opened their doors again!
If you need some help picking your next movie of choice, here are 7 movies you can catch now (some of them are only available for a limited time)!

Playing at: Shaw Theatres
From: [TBR] 3 Sept 2020
You might have to wait a little while for this one, even if the theatres are now open. The Secret Garden is one of the movies that 2020 promised us, alongside movies like Mulan and Peter Rabbit 2.
Based on the book of the same title by Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden follows a recently-orphaned 10-year-old Mary Lennox as she grows out of her surliness and discovers The Secret Garden. The wondrous garden heals not just Mary but also her sickly cousin Colin.
We understand if you’re excited to visit the theatres again, at the same time, we would like to kindly remind you to follow the safety measures in place as they are there to keep you and your loved ones safe.
